Playing with a time lapse app and my salmon dinner

I follow a few Instagram users who use time lapse apps and share great images of the sun rising or setting plus other cool stuff. I wanted to give it a go so I tried it out while eating my dinner tonight.

I don’t know if this is something I’ll do frequently.

Tonight I cooked salmon and salad.

The salmon was prepared in my time honoured manner. I place a fillet of salmon with the skin on into a hot pan and place the lid on top. I cook for exactly five minutes and then take it off the heat and remove the lid. I let the salmon rest on the dinner plate for at least a few minutes.

The time lapse app I’m using is Lapse It. The frame interval was 2 per second with a delay of 500 milliseconds, the resolution was 720p and it was encoded to MP4 using high quality rendering at 27 fps.
